    Default remember that poorly kitted 350z a while ago? its FIXED!!!

    this thread went around quite a few forums last year, posted 2 or 3 times on here alone.

    ie. Quality paint & panel

    its finally been rebuilt. no close up pics, but looks a hell of a lot better

    Well, OMFG.....

    I spent wayyy to much time ready a lot of that, but the first pics had me LOL'ing sooo hard, I had to see what happened.

    What a joke, "you get what you pay for..." pffft,

    Is it just me or does that custom colour just look like primer with a heavy blue pearl over it? lmao... probly looks better 'in the flesh'...?
